Kyle David Bellini - How to Succeed in Grad School

Kyle David Bellini graduated from the Jesuit High School in Tampa,
Florida and joined the University of Florida to study finance. He
received his Bachelor’s degree in Finance and enrolled in the Nathan S.
Collier Master of Science in Real Estate program at the same university.
Grad school is a unique experience that requires you to sharpen your
skills and learn new ones as well. It is unlike college, and is more or
like a full-time job, where you have to give it all you got. Kyle David
Bellini will graduate from his master’s program in 2016, and offers
these few tips to grad students.

Know Your Work
Grad
school requires a tremendous amount of work, and in order to keep up
with its demands, you will have to know your work. Knowing your work is
the key to succeeding in grad school.

Smart Reading
In
grad school, you will need to read a lot of study material. Instead of
reading from beginning to end, you will need to look at a couple of
things such as the organization of the piece, chapter headings, bullet
points, and read it with a purpose. While reading the material, you will
need to determine if the article supports your argument or not.

Focus on Learning Instead of on Grades
In
grad school, it is more important to focus on learning that on grades.
In grad school, it is not about acing your tests, but more about
retaining the information you have learned. Grad school programs are
designed to train you to become a professional, and to understand people
and how you can work together with them.

Kyle David Bellini is
looking forward to starting a career in the real estate industry after
he graduates from the University of Florida.
